Super Stretch Yoga For Kids-Kickstarter-Jessica Rosenberg-Podcast 680

Anyone who has practiced Yoga for a while knows the benefits of a daily practice. Most of us wish we could have started sooner than we did. Fact is, the promises of yoga aren’t just for adults. A longtime yogi and teacher has developed an application to teach a mindfulness practice to kids. Find out what it is and how you can support it in SuperStretch Yoga For Kids-Kickstarter-Jessica Rosenberg-Podcast 680.

How To Teach Yoga To Kids

SuperStretch has been around since 2001. It teaches young people how to get rid of stress and anxiety. In Super Stretch Yoga For Kids-Kickstarter-Jessica Rosenberg-Podcast 680 you’ll learn how the program works and how to support it. Find SuperStretch here. Support SuperStretch on Kickstarter here.

Funding A Yoga Business

These days funding and growing any kind of business can be a challenge. Yoga businesses can be even more challenging to fund. Jessica and I talk about the value of including KickStarter in funding a yoga business in Super Stretch Yoga For Kids-Kickstarter-Jessica Rosenberg-Podcast 680.

Especially relevant in this conversation is the question of whether Yoga businesses need their own financial infrastructure. Sometimes getting funding for Yoga businesses requires a broadminded investor, or someone who is passionate about Yoga. This can be an impediment to getting financing.

The Promises of Yoga

Moreover the idea of teaching yoga to kids is not without controversy. Jessica talks about the practice of Yoga as an enhancement of the individual. Is it complimentary to the student’s culture or religion? Talking to an experienced teacher always opens my eyes to the physical, mental and spiritual reactions these postures produce, as well as their benefits.

The Path

In conclusion this is also a great conversation about what living the life of a yogi is about. Teachers and students on this path know it requires the commitment of a warrior. This is especially true for Yoga Entrepreneurs. Jessica has a great deal of in depth knowledge about the practice and business of yoga, proving her warrior spirit. Thanks again to her, and to SuperStretch for taking the time.

Thanksgiving Thought Starters-Fight Starters-Fight Enders-Podcast 679

Thanksgiving Thought Starters-Fight Starters-Fight Enders-Podcast 679

Thanksgiving dinner is supposed to be a fun family get together. At times this fall celebration of the harvest can erupt into ugly political and social disputes. Time for some ideas to flip the script in Thanksgiving Thought Starters-Fight Starters-Fight Enders-Podcast 679.

Welcome To The Rollercoaster

Especially relevant is the fact that the holiday season from Thanksgiving to Christmas, can be an emotional rollercoaster for almost all families. Whether you’re hosting the dinner or heading out to a relative’s house it’s a good idea to be prepared.

Freedom of Choice

In Thanksgiving Thought Starters-Fight Starters-Fight Enders-Podcast 679 I share some personal thanksgiving and family experiences to get you thinking. Most important is to remember we all have the freedom of choice about what we think about social or political issues. If you want to hear an example of my own personal thanksgiving experience a few years ago, click here.

What He Said!

When it comes to politics these days, you can bet there will be discussion at the Thanksgiving table about much of the reactive coverage about politics. Add alcohol to the mix, and you will have to decide whether to engage or not, depending on your situation. Of course, give yourself permission to keep your mouth shut, or leave right after dinner, if necessary.

SeaChangeTone

Should you make the decision to engage your crazy uncle on a political level Thanksgiving Thought Starters-Fight Starters-Fight Enders-Podcast 679 gives you ideas on how change the tone of the conversation.

In conclusion when it comes to politics and social issues we could all do with a change in tone. Do we want to be leaders or followers? Rather than fighting about what someone else says on a TV Show why not talk about what we are for? What kind of a world do we think is coming? Where does our energy and advocacy belong.

The Old World Is Passing

Moreover we are seeing fewer positive interactions with the age old institutions of our society like government and religion. What kind of world is coming and what is our role in it? Throw that out over the mashed potatoes and see what happens. Or not.

Sunny Lohmann ANTIFA-Tipping-Fashion-Life-Podcast 678

Sunny Lohmann ANTIFA-Tipping-Fashion-Life-Podcast 678

What happens when two podcasters get together? We crosspost! Sunny Lohmann of The House of Sunny joins me to talk about ANTIFA, fashion, life and more in Sunny Lohmann ANTIFA-Tipping-Fashion-Life-Podcast 678. Part 1 and Part 2 of this marathon video podcast can be found here, and here.

You Tube

Sunny has been doing You Tube since 2010 and is now starting an audio podcast. You Tube and Podcasting have changed a lot since the early days. These days, You Tube and Podcasting has become more competitive, with better video, categories and better content. How does a You Tuber or a podcaster grow in this environment.

Winning With Content

Content is still king when it comes to getting viewers and listeners. Especially relevant is the question of what content works these days. Political content in general does not have the traction it used to have. We talk about why in Sunny Lohmann ANTIFA-Tipping-Fashion-Life-Podcast 678.

Media Bias

These days we hear a lot of complaints about broadcast TV shows like SNL about bias. Discussed on this podcast is the idea that these shows actually don’t have great ratings. To remain relevant, especially with younger viewers, broadcast TV shows are posting You Tube clips. Moreover huge percentages of people now say they get their news from social media.

Political Correctness Has Ruined Comedy?

In Sunny Lohmann ANTIFA-Tipping-Fashion-Life-Podcast 678 Sunny talks about political correctness in comedy. In her view, comedians cease being funny when they start worrying about whether what they say will be permissible. Artists lose their way trying to be relevant to an audience. Artists have to take risks, especially in comedy.

The Content Minefield

So many scolds are so quick to attack these days on both sides of the political spectrum. The result is a minefield any content creator will eventually wander into. We wonder whether the best thing is to go direct to the audience and consumer with your own channels and podcasts. How does a YouTuber or podcaster navigate around content control algorithms?

Relevance

Finally we talk about how the former mainstream political content giants have ceased to be relevant, chiefly among them AM Talk Radio, which we both agree is unlistenable these days. A good lesson for the tech giants, which are more vulnerable to competition than many critics realize.
